The Hardware Engineering Center (HWEC) focuses on product producibility and mission assurance, serving as a vital link in the integrated product development process. As an Electrical Engineer, you will participate in multi-discipline teams supporting primarily military programs through the application of electrical engineering resources and design processes. You will contribute to the design, analysis, and support of electronics products in a collaborative, team-based environment.

Responsibilities

• Support EO/IR, digital, analog, sustaining, and production electronics, including components engineering and product development.
• Engage in digital, analog, FPGA/VHDL programming, ASIC support, and production electronics engineering.
• Design transistor-level analog and EO/IR integrated circuits using modern semiconductor technologies.
• Participate in detailed circuit design and configurable digital logic development using VHDL.
• Conduct functional analysis and verification testing.
• Troubleshoot and provide root cause and corrective action for design and process issues in collaboration with engineering and production teams.

What You Will Learn

• Utilize internal processes and tools for system-level hardware development.
• Apply technical standards, concepts, and techniques in real-world scenarios.
• Provide recommendations for technical problems of appropriate scope and complexity under general supervision.
• Thrive in a dynamic, team-based technical environment that values ability and initiative.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related STEM field (obtained prior to start date).
• U.S. citizenship (required for security clearance eligibility).
• Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government-issued DoD Secret security clearance (active clearance required after day one).
• Experience documenting test results and repair recommendations.
• Proficiency in testing and troubleshooting electrical circuits.
• Ability to read drawings and electrical schematics.
• Understanding of Ethernet, UDP, and 1588 protocols.
• Working knowledge of EE lab equipment (e.g., Vector Network Analyzers, Power Meters, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, DMMs, signal sources).
• Familiarity with design tools such as Matlab, LabVIEW, Keysight ADS, Genesys, PSPICE, Ansys HFSS, AutoCAD, Mentor Graphics Design Architect, Mentor Expedition Design & Analysis Tool Suite, and/or DX Designer for PWB schematic capture.

Preferred Qualifications

• Proficiency in VHDL and Verilog.
• Experience with ModelSim / QuestaSim.
• Strong TCL scripting capability.
• Experience with FPGA toolchains (e.g., Xilinx Vivado or equivalent).
• Familiarity with Git or equivalent version control systems.
• Experience with simulation-based verification.
• Exposure to JIRA or similar issue tracking methodologies.
• Experience with MATLAB/Simulink, including HDL generation workflows and FPGA toolchain integration.
• Experience supporting integration and test activities in a lab environment.

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
• Life insurance and short/long-term disability coverage.
• 401(k) match.
• Flexible spending accounts.
• Flexible work schedules.
• Employee assistance program.
• Employee Scholar Program (education support).
• Parental leave.
• Paid time off and holidays.
• Eligibility for annual short-term and/or long-term incentive compensation programs (dependent on role and business unit).

Pay

The salary range for this role is $57,200 – $108,800 USD. The final offer considers factors such as role, function, responsibilities, work experience, location, education/training, and key skills.
